"Amber Hathaway has created a terrifying corner of Maine to rival anything of Stephen King's and I am 100% here for it, and anything else she can come up with now." -D.A. Holwill, author of The Wicker Dogs series Where secrets seed, evil blooms. After narrowly escaping a sacrificial ritual with her life, Alice Drayton finds herself trapped in the isolated rural village of Evanston, Maine. With guards monitoring the ancestral farmhouse she and her brother are being held captive in around the clock, escape seems impossible. She may be left with no choice but to abandon everything she stands for and assimilate into Evanston's twisted religious community. If she survives. When a series of seemingly inexplicable tragedies plague the town, rumors of witchcraft proliferate. Alice's outsider status places her at the top of the suspect list. Will she and her allies escape Evanston and bring an end to its insidious rituals, or will they meet their fate at the gallows?
